Summary: redneck vs millionaire econonics
Comment: I love this book. The author just died this year 2003, the day after Easter. I wish I could have met him.
Every page is filled with neat ideas. I especially love his "redneck vs millionaire economics."
He describes how his son started a business recycling used pallets and built it into a million dollar business.
One chapter is "How to save $37,500 and live on $12,000 a year."
This book does not have the typical frugal ideas of turning down the thermostat and collecting coupons. There are plenty of other books to describe those ideas.

Summary: Don't Steal This Book!
Comment: Should you buy a book based on its title in hopes that it will magically solve all your problems? Probably not, although I did. Upon receiving this book in the mail, I immedeatly read it from cover to cover the first night. At first I was somewhat disappointed out of my own desperation (first lesson: never wait so long that you are in desperate need to make a change). After all, I had just exchanged the very thing I couldn't afford to lose for-well, the very thing I was hoping to get out of this transaction.
I soon relaxed, however, sinking into the book realizing how knowledgeable this author was on this subject. He talks in-depth about all the different places he and his family have lived, for example; how each state and/or town differ socially, politically, and economically. He also tells the story of how his son turned used, wooden pallets into a full-fledged company complete with a fleet of trucks and a huge warehouse! The book really began showing much more promise than I had originally given it credit for. But it also gives practical methoods to all the madness as well such as eating cheap (the one thing I disagree with), and ways to make money in desperation (just what I wanted-and it's all legal, or most of it).
So this book is worth the-well, exchange. (This was the best price too!) It's a very smart book that will get your practical and creative juices flowing without telling you which slug fits into the parking meter and that you shouldn't give-in to the establishment. So, give the author his due and BUY THIS BOOK. After all, he's earned it!
